I'm off to the Big Easy, so this is it for me until Tuesday. I leave you in Hambone's capable hands. I trust he'll wash them for you after changing diapers all day. Enjoy the weekend and the NFL Draft and all that stuff.
Both afternoon game lines are from Matchbook:
Milwaukee Brewers +156, 1 unit to win 1.56 units.
Something about Hamels doesn't look right this year. Of course, people seem to ignore little stuff like that when a team has "World Series Champions" next to their name. But the smart bettors ignore the "World Series Champions" next to a team's name and look at which team they think is gonna score more runs that day. We like Braun to tee off on the lefty Hamels for a big day today. Don't bet on that, though. Just bet on the game.
Cincinnati Reds +157, 1 unit to win 1.57 units.
Man, we hate betting on Dusty Baker teams. Willy Taveras leading off? Really? Seriosuly, if you know the guy, do him, us, and the fine citizens of Cincinnati a favor: take him aside and gently tell him that the game has passed him by.
However, we do like Aaron Harang. Don't know what was wrong with that guy last year, but it's starting to look like it was nothing more than a hiccup in a stellar career. He's sporting a monstrous ERA+ of 171 this year. Sure, the good but overrated Zambrano is on the mound for the Cubs, but +157 is an awfully juicy number for a guy with an ERA+ of 171. We don't think we could live with ourselves if we passed on that.
